The following exercise combines all the rules of roots,
can you solve it?
Solution:
Roots come before the order of operations, so we will first deal with the first root:
We could do this using the root formula of a product.
Let's move on to the second root:
Note โ in this root, there was an exercise in the denominator, we first solved it and then continued to simplify the root using the root formula of a quotient.
Let's move on to the third root:
Here we simply solved the exercise inside the root without using a formula.
Now let's rewrite the exercise slowly and carefully without getting confused:
There are still roots in the exercise, so we will need to get rid of them:
Now that there are no more roots, we can solve according to the order of operations:
Choose the largest value
It is also important to remember something fundamental, the important rules and the laws of roots.
A root is the inverse operation of exponentiation,
it is denoted by the symbol and is equivalent to the power of .
If a small number appears on the left side, it indicates the order of the root.
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{30}\cdot\sqrt{1}= \)
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{1}\cdot\sqrt{2}= \)
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{16}\cdot\sqrt{1}= \)
When the root appears over the entire product, we can break down each factor and apply the root while leaving the multiplication sign between the factors.
We will formulate it as a formula:
When the root appears on the entire quotient (on the entire fraction), we can break down each factor and apply the root to it while leaving the division sign (the fraction line) between the factors.
We can formulate it as a formula:
The root on an additional root, we multiply the order of the first root by the order of the second root, and the order we obtained is applied as a root to our number. (Similar to the rule of power on power)
We will formulate this as a rule:
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{1}\cdot\sqrt{25}= \)
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{25x^4}= \)
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{\frac{2}{4}}= \)
And now we will practice exercises that combine the laws of exponents:
Solution:
According to what we learned, we must first handle the roots according to the order of operations, so we will start from the beginning of the exercise to handle each root.
Let's start with the root
The root here is a root of a product, and according to the formula for a root with a product, we can separate the two numbers to solve more easily
In our exercise, this means
We will rewrite the exercise and continue
Great! Now let's move on to the second root that needs handling
The root here is a root of a quotient, and according to the formula, we can separate the numerator and the denominator to make it easier to solve.
The formula is:
And in our exercise:
We will rewrite the exercise and continue:
Now let's move to the root
Here, no formula is needed, and we can simply solve what is inside the root to get:
Now we will rewrite the exercise:
Note, according to what we learned, the root comes before arithmetic operations, so we will first solve the simple roots we created for ourselves:
Now let's rewrite the exercise after we have eliminated and solved all the roots:
We will continue to solve according to the order of operations.
Multiplication comes before addition, therefore:
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{\frac{225}{25}}= \)
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{x^2}= \)
Solve the following exercise:
\( \sqrt{100}\cdot\sqrt{25}= \)
Choose the largest value
Let's begin by calculating the numerical value of each of the roots in the given options:
We can determine that:
5>4>3>1 Therefore, the correct answer is option A
Solve the following exercise:
Let's start with a reminder of the definition of a root as a power:
We will then use the fact that raising the number 1 to any power always yields the result 1, particularly raising it to the power of half of the square root (which we obtain by using the definition of a root as a power mentioned earlier).
In other words:
Therefore, the correct answer is answer C.
Solve the following exercise:
Let's start by recalling how to define a square root as a power:
Next, we remember that raising 1 to any power always gives us 1, even the half power we got from converting the square root.
In other words:
Therefore, the correct answer is answer a.
Solve the following exercise:
Let's start by recalling how to define a root as a power:
Next, we will remember that raising 1 to any power will always yield the result 1, even the half power of the square root.
In other words:
Therefore, the correct answer is answer D.
Solve the following exercise:
To solve the expression , we will use the Product Property of Square Roots.
According to the property, we have:
First, calculate the product inside the square root:
Now the expression simplifies to:
Finding the square root of 25 gives us:
Thus, the value of is .
After comparing this solution with the provided choices, we see that the correct answer is choice 3.
